By Chris Ariens on Aug 26, 2010 08:49 AMAn apparent incident in the middle of MSNBC's 30 Rock newsroom earlier this month is coming to light today.
The NYPost reports MSNBC's 6pmET host Ed Schultz, irate over not being included in election night promos, yelled, "I'm going to torch this [bleep]ing place."
As astonished MSNBC staff members fell silent, Schultz glared around the room and yelled, "[Bleep]ers!" Fuming Schultz was immediately dragged in for a meeting with NBC News President Steve Capus and MSNBC President Phil Griffin following his Aug. 12 meltdown.
Our source added, "Schultz was told: 'If you do that again, you are fired.' He broke down crying."
Working in the newsroom at NBC must be a rung of HELL!
